Thanks! I fear my entry was not as good this year, but that Manbug wharnie is a probable winner. Color our world blackened!

Haha! My guy

I'm carrying a Code 4 tanto. Something I've been eyeing out since it's release years ago. In the past I wanted G10 for maximum gripitude and went with the Recon 1s for a while. Now I much prefer the slimmer profile and slightly shorter blade. Very smooth out the box, the blade drops shut on this one.

Thats a 3", right?

I really want to try one, but I'm hoping I can find one of the skinny/linerlock ones. It's going on 3 years of searching with no luck, so it may be time to just grab a normal one.

I usually hate textured carbon fiber, but the textured CF hinderer scales look so good.

Carrying my full ti xm24 today, as I am most days.

Such a great knife, my favorite folder...sorry Manix/Shaman!

Yes, 3" no choil XM18 Slicer is one of the best small flippers out there. Hand filling and robust.

Demko AD20S has been my carry lately.

Thoughts?

Mines been in my pocket every day since I got it. I need to do a full sharpening. I’ve only done quick touch ups.

Mine came pretty sharp actually. The action is kind of gritty so I’m not excited by that. It’s nice and light. I like it better than the bugout

me too. mine was also stiff. I didn't touch anything except the edge and it smoothed out over the week, its now free swinging. I haven't checked any screws/bolts yet to make sure they didn't back out but everything feels solid.

its gonna be tough to not carry this one... I love the thinly ground blade of this size and the handle fits me perfectly. ive tried to pick up my spydies and the Endura seems to heavy and to thick of a blade after a week

My new Creely Mako just kicked my Boker Daily Knives AK1 out of my pocket, so that's what I'm rocking today. Will attach a picture in a few minutes.

I always thought those were some of the best looking ZT's. Great looking blade you got there!

Thanks! The 0801 is still possibly the best ZT IMO. This version got some extra love with an exceptional grind, being thinner behind the edge than my others.

That Murray Carter Muteki by his Apprentice/Muteki Bladesmith, Adam arrived this a.m. .....it's a freakin laser, lol, no joke.
I'm gonna get a Spyderco version in Super Blue as well. Thus far my favorite kitchen blades have been Tojiro DP in VG10. They have been absolutely
phenomenal.
Especially when sharpened by Jason at Traditional Sharpening. I cannot tell ya what a difference he can make! My plan will be to get the Spydie Murray Carter version, then send all of them including the Tojiro DP in VG10 to Jason. Then I'll have freshly sharpened White Steel, Blue Steel, & VG10
I'll post some pics up of this White Steel Blade shortly
I don't care to sharpen my pocket knives myself. But, when it comes to my kitchen blades, it's far better to have perfectly SHARP angles. And, man can he do it. Does it free hand too.

Here we go gang. It's actually smaller than what I thought she would be. But, still very nice.
Carter Cutlery Muteki Slicer by Carter Cutlery Muteki Bladesmith Adam. Each Muteki Bladesmith will have his or her own symbol. You can see Adam's on the non- presentation side of the blade. Speaking of the blade, she's just nasty sharp. It is the sharpest outta the box knife I've had. She's lean & mean......think I'm really gonna love this Hitachi White #1! As I stated earlier I'll next tie into the Spyderco Murray Carter version in Super Blue.

Freaking sweet kitchen knife Paul!! WOW!!
